I have no doubt he would have no objection to baking these women a cake and even icing it but the conflict came when they wanted the custom cake to celebrate their union which to him was immoral. It would be like someone coming in and demanding that he create a custom cake of a pen*s and a vagi*a.

Exactly. The guy doesn't make "gay" cakes. You can't force someone to make a product they don't offer. Try going to Ford, and force them to make you a Corvette.

What ever happened to the slogan, “ We have the right to refuse service to anyone”? Used to see those all over the place years ago. Where’d they go?

Anyone who wants to be turned into a car has some serious mental issues.

My guess is that the lesbian who demanded that the baker decorate the cake had noticed the Christian symbols in the store and selected that store for that reason--there must be many other places in the Portland area where the baker would be happy to comply with her wishes.

What if a neo-Nazi went to a bakery whose owner was known to be Jewish and demanded that he decorate a cake for him honoring Hitler's birthday? Would the people who want to coerce the baker in this case be all for using the power of the state to force that hypothetical baker to comply?
